Thanks to the pricey prices @ Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, we ended up at this favorite tonight for a far better meal I am sure.

Pineapple Upside-down Cake was a bit on the dry side.

Waitress was slow and old as usual but heck when you've been working there for 50 years, you'd be slow and old too.

4.2 Stars out of 5

PS:  Have always giggled that the bathrooms are on the outside in this restaurant. 

Sometimes you just need some comfort food.  Sometimes you just need the TIP TOP CAFE on Fred Road. Even when the line to get in is local favorite is out the door and down the street---you wait for the good home-cooking inside.

Of course we always start with the onion rings.  Tonight was no different.  Always fresh and always way good.

Obligatory Chicken Fried Steak:  gravy on bottom and big enough to fill up your plate.  Big enough to fill your belly.  Tasty enough to make a difference. Always.
